Advanced Registration documentation

Ask new HumHub members to complete their profile

A new member who has just signed up is the most willing to add a photo and a few details. Advanced Registration can show one last page at that moment, with only the elements you choose.

1. Choose the elements

In the settings of the module (Administration → Modules → Advanced Registration → Configure), open Elements to display after registration and tick what the page should show:

ElementWhat the member does
The profile header allowing the user to upload their profile pictureuploads a profile picture, under "Community is better with faces: please upload your photo."
The profile fields formchecks and completes the fields of their profile
A map allowing the user to locate himselfplaces themselves on the map of the Members Map module; shown only when Members Map is installed
User localization on the map is requiredmust place themselves before going further
The language selectorpicks the language of the interface
The timezone selectorpicks their time zone, so event times are right

As soon as one element is ticked, the page appears to every member right after they create their account.

2. What the member sees

The page opens on its own after sign-up, with the chosen elements one under the other and an I'm done! button. Until the member clicks it, every page of the community leads back there (signing out and deleting the account still work). Members who signed up before the module was set up never see it.

3. The time zone on the sign-up form

HumHub guesses a new member's time zone from their browser. Under Elements to display on the registration form, The timezone selector adds a list to the sign-up form itself, so members choose it while they create the account. It helps communities whose members travel or use a browser set to another zone, as events are shown in each member's time zone.
